For the tenth straight year, Texas Heritage National Bank, originally the National Bank for Daingerfield, has provided signal Presidential Scholarships for top students of the ��ɫ����������ƵӰԺ Honors program.

And this year, for the first time, it has provided not just one, but two such scholarships.

The Whatley Center for the Performing Arts is excited to open its new season with a Sounds of Northeast concert featuring RokDox, an electrifying classic rock horn band, on Saturday, September 13th, at 7:30 p.m. This high-energy show will showcase iconic hits and dynamic performances from this talented group of musicians. Tickets are $20 for adults and $5 for students.

For the first time in its history, Alpha Mu Chi, ��ɫ����������ƵӰԺ’s five-star, award-winning chapter of Phi Theta Kappa, will be published in Civic Scholar, a national journal of undergraduate research.

Judges selected the ��ɫ����������ƵӰԺ Phi Theta Kappa chapter project, “Folklore Unique to Northeastern Texas,” from among 416 entries from throughout the nation. Only 15 selected projects appear in the 2025 edition of Civic Scholar.

Litzy Flores, Sarah Hamlin, LaDarrius Patterson, and Isabel Tresidder were recently recognized nationally as “Leaders of Promise.” Each will receive a $1,000 scholarship.
